At a Glance:

Maanek-Rex is and always has been massive, even for his own people. He is huge in every way, not only in height but in stature. He eats and drinks to match his size though, many times devouring more than the inn or tavern can offer at the time. His body is piled and piled with cords of muscle and his gut bulges out as solid as rock. His legs and arms thicker than tree trunks and his hands look like boulders when balled into fists. Like the average male Goliath he sports no body hair. He tends to wear rather loose clothes, baggy leggings fastened under the gut with cord and open-front tunics to allow for breathing without tearing them. His face tends to stay rather dark looking even when in a decent mood, the structure of his face makes him appear to be brooding most of the time. His attitude is usually rather meek and subdued with the exception of when he is embroiled in combat. He does not place appearance over comfort which is rather apparent in his dress. He keeps a pendant clasped about his neck at all times that was a keepsake of his mothers, it appears to be a piece of black glass etched with ancient runes.

History:

Maanek-Rex was born in Hammerfell and raised by his mother Nalla. His youth was a complicated one. Not only was he already born to a race of giant people, but he was living within the halls of Dwarves. All through his childhood he was teased and taunted for his size but never confronted face to face due to the very reason he was teased. He was a rather calm child though, sitting and “listening to the earth” as he always put it. As he grew he swiftly surpassed the size of even the human children twice his age, simply put, Maanek was a colossus, a “quiet-giant.”

He wasn’t but 11 years of age when his mother passed. She had been hired to defend a hazardous road for a wealthy caravan. She had lived by the “voices in the stone” all her life and had bestowed her love of the earth onto her child. Maanek was heartbroken by her passing and receded into himself when he was given the news that she had fallen in duty to a gang of elemental worshipers. She had returned to the earth and it took Maanek a year to finally allow himself to open back up. He was taken under the wing of a Dwarven stone-smith Harbarek, who was a family friend. Harbarek didn’t quite know what to do with the massive child and so he put him to work. He needed the assistance in his work and Maanek was perfect for lifting and moving the giant stones required for the mason’s business. Plus this apprenticeship would help pay for the massive quantities of food and drink that Maanek would put away. Maanek spent his youth under the firm tutelage of Harbarek, learning ways to sculpt stone, to change it, to understand it. As it turns out, Maanek was a natural.

During the course of those years Maanek met a number of people and developed a few friendships outside of Harbarek. He met some of the more interesting people when Harbarek took a job with the church of Ioun. They were constructing a new wing and having some of the columns replaced due to stress fractures in them. Maanek and Harbarek worked diligently for months removing the old columns and placing new ones, then carving and etching them into the proper form. Maanek was meticulous and when asked how he had become so good all he could think to say was “I understand the stone…” The church of Ioun paid well and hired Harbarek and Maanek for other contracts later on and they built a respectable reputation with the church. Granted, Maanek didn’t follow Ioun’s teachings directly, but he respected them greatly.

Maanek didn’t so much fall into a his position as an adventurer as he followed his mother’s footsteps. He just knew the stone and the earth and followed the calling out into the world. His size alone made him incredibly formidable and likened him to the rock beneath his feat. Thus Maanek-Rex began training by following the whispers of the earth and stone that he could hear in his heart. He didn’t call upon the learning of texts or the magics of the arcane or divine… His was a primal more instinctual relationship with the world beneath him.
